“A wonderful book for someone who likes mathematics and likes to be challenged!” —Chris Bernhardt, author of Quantum Computing for Everyone
This book presents a series of engaging math games that seem unsolvable—but can be solved when they are translated into mathematical terms.
How can players find their ID cards when the cards are distributed randomly among twenty boxes? By applying the theory of permutations.
How can a player guess the color of her own hat when she can only see other players’ hats? Hamming codes, which are used in communication technologies.
Like magic, mathematics solves the apparently unsolvable. Featuring a wide range of mathematics, these games allow anyone, including university students and anyone with high school-level math, to experience the joy of mathematical discovery.
